<DIV><DIV><b>To learn who killed a loathsome gossip columnist, Bognor joins the paper</b></div><DIV><BR></div><DIV>Staggering homeward from a banquet, St. John Derby decides it would be easier to stagger back to work instead. When he reaches his desk, the booze-addled gossip columnist treats himself to a massive tumbler of port and calls for a taxi. By the time the cab arrives, the port is spilled on the carpet, mingling with the blood leaking from Derby&rsquo;s cut throat. No one will mourn his death. </div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>Special investigator Simon Bognor is dispatched to get the scoop on who finished off the sodden old scribe. Journalism is not Bognor&rsquo;s field&mdash;in fact, he can barely type&mdash;and the tame missives that pepper the paper&rsquo;s gossip section strike him as too boring to kill for. But as he pokes around the daily newspaper&rsquo;s offices, he finds quite the story indeed&mdash;one that will either land him on the front page, or among the obituaries.</div><BR></div>
